Cure for Roup and Gapes.

1t is extremely desirable to have relia-
Bile cure for both of these pests of the poul-
try yard. We therefore give the experience
of correspondent of one of our poultry
exchanges with these diseases:
| take the lid of a backing box and set it
over candle or lamp. The time to do the
fumigating is at about 7:30 o'clock in the
evening. AT that time the chickens are on
the roost, and may be easily caught and
will remain quiet the rest of the night.
which is necessary for obtaining the best
results. If you turn them out after fumi-
gazing them they may need a second dos
ing. Well, now to the point. As soon as
the pan or lid is hot pour in little carbolic
acid. Take the chickens by the legs and
hold them tight, as they will struggle to
get loose. Hold them in the gas until they
show signs of suffocating, and then take a
little water and pour it down their threats :;
first add about five drops of acid to the
quart of water. In the morning when Won
get up you will find your chicks well and
happy and free from gapes. This is also
my remedy for roup, of which l have had
my share. As the old saying is, ian ounce
Of prevention is worth ton of cure" use
about five drops of carbolic acid to every,
quart OF water my fowls get to drink, for
both old and young, and find it a most ex-
cellent stlinuldnt, as well as prevention
from disease. For both roup and gapes |
have never known the fumes of carbolic
acid to fail il also acts as a cleanser of YER
min on the fowl. | raise my chicks in a
brooder, and give them a variety of food.
For the first three days hard boiled eggs
and bread crumbs, equal parts, and then
until ten days oatmeal or rice boiled, aud
every few days little red pepper mixed in /.
and then | begin to feed whole wheat, and
every couple of days cracked corn and uu-
boiled oatmeal

The Seven Cuticura Boys.

Our oldest child, now six years of age, when
an infant six months old, was attacked with
virulent and malignant skin disease. All ordi-
nary remedies failing, we called our family ply
stefan, who attempted to cure it; but it spread
with almost incredible rapidity, until the lower
portion of the little fellows person, from the
middle of his back down to his knees was one
solid rash, ugly, painful, blotched and malicious.
We had no rest at night. no peace by day. Final
ly, we were advised to try the CUTICURi RENE
DIES. The effect was simply marvellous. nthree
or four weeks complete cure was wrought, leav-
ing the little fellow person as white and healthy
as though he had never been attacked In my
opinion, your valuable remedies saved his life,
and day he is strong, healthy child perfectly
well, no repetition of the disease having ever
occurred. GEO. Il. SMITH,

THE developments thus tar made by
the treasury investigation into the man
agement Of affairs at Castle Garden show
that there have been gross abuses prac-
ticed there, for which somebody ought to
be severely punished. A regularly or
ganized system of blackmail appears to
have been conducted by the employees,
under which immigrants have been sys.
tematically robbed according to their
ability to pay the demands of the thiev-
ing officials. Various persons paid large
sums for privileges, repaying themselves
by practlcing extortion upon the poor
friendless strangers. Perhaps the dis
closures are not so bad as had been ex.
pected, but they are bad enough to war
rant q prompt removal of the officials
who have permitted such state of
things. some of whom at least have
doubtless shared in the spoils, and to
impress the necessity OF thorough re.
form of the methods in vogue at Castle

One of the witnesses most desired by
the Pacific railroads investigating COM
mission is Grenville NJ. Dodge. That
gentleman has undoubtedly been aware
of this, and it is said has been doing his
utmost to keep out of reach. The SER
geant.at-arms of the commission chased
General Dodge 1900 miles over the coun-
try for the purpose of serving subpoena
on him to appear before the commission,
but the general always succeeded in
giving his pursuer the slip. He has been
captured, however, and the way in which
it was accomplished Is thus told by the
Philadelphia Record:
Governor Pattson appointed John j. Cur
ley, of the Record, a special deputy sergeant

The necessary documents arrived from San
Francisco on Monday night. Mr.. Curley

located General Dodge at No. Broadway,
the big Washington building, which con.
tains $50 offices. the generals name moi
appearing on tho directory of the building,
1t required diligent inquiry to locate him on
the eighth floor. Admission to his presence
was impossible. but three hours wait re-
warded Mr.. Curley with glimpse of Genera
Dodge as he emerged from one of the foul
elevators in the building and endeavored te
lose his identity in the throng on Broadway.
He was soon overtaken, however, and &C.
cepted service of the subpoena in the middle

Interstate Extradittou,

The conference Of represen tatives Of
most of the states. held in New York last
week to consider the subject Of the extra
dition between the states, formulated q
set of rules which will be submitted to
the legislatures of the several states with
view 10 the establishment of uniform
system of extradition. Among the reso-
lutions adopted was one declaring it to
be the sense OF the conference that the
governors of the demanding states dis
courage proceedings for the extradItion
of prisoners charged with petty otienses.
and that, except in special eases, under
aggravated circumstances, no demand
should be made" A report presented
by the committee on law held that
extradition is process that
ought not to be resorted to for

petty misdemeanors. The fact that the
perpetrator OF such misdemeanor runs
away and stays away may properly be
accepted as sufficient atonement for his
offense.
The rules and forms adopted and rec.
commended were evidently framed with
the intention of guarding the rights of
accused persons while adequately sub.
serving the ends of justice. They are
very comprehensive as to what shall be
required in order to render demand for
extraditlon valid and effective, and If
such system as the conference has pre-
scribed were in general operation it
would be impossible to make q writ Of
extradition, as sometimes happens, an
instrument of private malice, while it
would remove. some of the difficulties
now in the way of procuring such writs.
Under the proposed system those who
demand the return of fugitive from
justice must clearly establish their re-
sponsiollty and care is taken to provide
that such demand shall have the support
of all necessary facts regarding the ma
ture OF the crime charged and other es-
sentlal circumstances. 1t Is not ques.
tlonable that a uniform system of extra
diton, surrounded with proper and ade-
quate safeguards, is to be desired, and
such system would be attained under
the rules recommended by the confer
ence. The matter Will doubtless receive
attention at the next session of most oi
the legislatures.

CoLoRADo's militia has covered itself
with glory. For number of days it
sought to tease the Indians into some in.
discreet act. and, not succeeding in that
cndeavor, they proceeded to kill few,
according to last accounts on paper.
They had one of their own number shot,
ON paper again, and now they report the
Indians back on their fertile lava be d
reservation. The savages probably did
not leave it TO any great extent, only just
enough to excite the military spirit of
Colorado into sort of mild, inotfensive
frenzy against poor Lo. But suppose
the Indians did leave their reservation.
1t would not be any great wonder. Cold
lava may be interesting from scientific
point of view, but it is poor stuff to
pasticate and get INTO the circulation.

The county officials and their fool
friends who have tampered with Post.
gate in order to break the fall which they
expected to follow the investigation into
county management, instituted by the
BEE, will profit very little by their smart
WORK. They are very much mistaken II
they imagine that buying up Postgate's S
report will allay public resentment at the
hagrant abuses and reckless appropria.
tions of the county funds. On the con
trary, the fact that they have tampered
with the reporter more than ever con.
firms the suspicion that they have some

Another Prize Fight.

Another brutal slugging match has
taken place almost within view from this
city. All the arrangements for this Grim.
inal combat were made in Omaha, and
the excursion TO the place Of meeting was
planned, organized and set in motion in
Omaha. This Is the second time
within less than a month
that professional sluggers have
been allowed to make all preliminary ar
rangements in this city for such Grim.
inal encounter without the slightest hin.
drance from the county or city authorities.
This Is simply disgraceful. The sheriff
and police could hardly have been ignor-
ant Of the preparations for the lawless ex-
pedition. Why did they not break up the
match by active interference? Suppose a
duel had been concerted in Omaha, which
was to be fought out over IN Iowa, would
not tho authorities on this side be in
duty bound to thwart and pre-
vent it at the very outset'
And suppose, after fighting bloody duel
in Iowa, the participants should return
to Omaha-would not the sheriff or police
be in duty bound to arrest and hold them
until requisition was duly made for
their transfer to the custody of the Iowa
authorities?
If the island on which the prize fight
took place is in Nebraska, the prnci pals
their seconds and associates have COM
mlttod penitentiary offense under the
statutes of Nebraska. If the island is
part of Iowa. they are amenable under
the criminal code of Iowa. In any event
this brutal exhibition should be severely
punished and an example set that will
prevent repetition.

VICE PRESIDENT POTTER proposes TO
take the Union Pacific out of the Wyo.
ming coal mining business and the Col.
OradO sandstone quarries just as soon as
the road can dispose of its mines and
quarries. 1t is to be hoped the Union
Pacihc may be able to unload these en-
terprises. 1t had no business to go into
them beyond procuring supply Of fuel
and building material for its own use
and the policy of monopolizing the coal
and stone traffic has been productive of
the most intense popular resentment all
along the line. The Union Pacific and
every other railroad should be content
with its transportation patronage and
leave mining, grain handling and stone
quarrying to private enterprise.
